Wednesday, February 02, 2011 JPL Sells Majority of Commercial Fleet Assets
 JPL Vehicle Management Services of Toronto, Ontario will sell the majority of its commercial fleet assets to EMKAY Canada of Toronto. EMKAY will also acquire all of the assets and management of vehicles under JPL’s fuel and maintenance programs (ScoreTrak), plus other products.
EMKAY Inc. of Itasca, Illinois, has been providing fleet leasing and management services since 1946, and has operated in Canada for nearly two decades.
Alex Connolly, JPL president confirmed the transaction creates a stronger product offering including a robust web interface, additional new products immediately available, cross border servicing and more growth opportunities. Jim Peplinski, the originator of Jim Peplinski Leasemaster with whom they amalgamated in 1997, will continue to operate across Canada focusing on core commercial fleets of less than 15 vehicles and specific individual vehicle needs.
“We’re confident the customers and people who are being transitioned to EMKAY to grow their Canadian business will be well served by this transaction,” says Peplinski.
